US says Congo team must isolate before arriving for World Cup
WASHINGTON: Due to an Ebola outbreak in their country, members of Congo’s national soccer team must isolate before entering the US for the World Cup. Andrew Giuliani, executive director of the White House Task Force for the World Cup, confirmed to ESPN on Friday that the Congolese delegation must maintain a bubble where they currently are training in Belgium and isolate for 21 days or risk being denied entry. Congo is in Group K for this summer’s World Cup in North America. Its first game is against Portugal on June 17 in Houston, followed by matches against Colombia on June 23 in Guadalajara, Mexico, and against Uzbekistan on June 27 in Atlanta. “We’ve been very clear to Congo that they should maintain the integrity of their bubble for 21 days before they can then come to Houston on June 11,” Giuliani said, per ESPN.

UK sending three police officers to World Cup for ‘cultural’ help
LONDON: British police are sending just three officers to the US as “cultural interpreters” during the World Cup given the lack of any US funding, UK police said on Thursday. By contrast, 40 officers went to Germany for the 2024 European Championships, with financing by the hosts, said Mark Roberts, who leads football policing. “The States are not funding mobile travel delegations this time,” Roberts told reporters of next month’s tournament where England and Scotland will play their three opening group games in the US Both nations have a huge traveling fan base and the English have a history of hooliganism, though the exorbitant cost may put many off this tournament which is being co-hosted by the US, Canada and Mexico. “Our fans at World Cups are really well behaved ... I’m not anticipating problems, but clearly we’d rather have a presence there that can get involved if we are seeing issues develop,” Roberts added, stressing that he was not criticizing the US decision nor was there hostility to a UK deployment. The White House Task Force for the FIFA World Cup 2026 did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Two additional British officers will be working with US authorities at the Washington-based International Police Cooperation Center. “Most of the other European countries just aren’t bothering” to send their own officers to the tournament, Roberts added.
